open_basedir php warning restriction with shared hostings due to "closest" method

[SergiArias]

Version

4.2.2

What did you expect to happen?

No php warning in shared hosting

What actually happens?

Warning: is_readable(): open_basedir restriction in effect.
File(/home) is not within the allowed path(s)

Origin: https://discourse.roots.io/t/open-basedir-restriction-in-effect-tried-everything/27183/10

The problem is the closest method in /vendor/roots/acorn/src/Roots/Acorn/Filesystem/Filesystem.php

It can be patched in line 32 (this is just a patch, it won't work for specific restrictions in every shared hosting):

        // -- while ($this->isReadable($currentDirectory)) {
        while ($currentDirectory !== '/home' && $this->isReadable($currentDirectory)) {

Steps to reproduce

Upload roots sage to any shared hosting with open_basedir restriction

Do you have logs from web/app/cache/acorn/logs that might better pinpoint where this issue is specifically happening?

[SergiArias]

Of course, here you have. But the problem arises in closest() method in /vendor/roots/acorn/src/Roots/Acorn/Filesystem/Filesystem.php line 32 because it goes folder by folder searching for an env file until it reaches /home.

In my case I am not using bedrock.
